Harvest food festival in Cornwall

In 2014 our Harvest Festival, one of the best food festivals in Cornwall, featured a Chilli Weekend, Baobab Festival, and Beer, Wine and Cider Week! We'll put details of the 2015 festival on this page as soon as they're confirmed.

Price: Harvest Festival activities are included in the price of admission; our Beer Festival requires a separate ticket.
